It appears that respondent No. 1 Mst. Gul Naz, mother of the minors had applied before the Family Court Abbottbad, for the custody of her children said to be living with their father respondent No. 2 Muhammad Riaz. . Respondent No. 2 had earlier divorced respondent No.
1. The atten dance of respondent No. 2 could not be secured before the Family Court. The petitioner on the 22nd of July 1975, applied to the Family Court for being impleaded as a party. Respondent No. 1 contested this application. Admittedly the minors are not in the custody of the petitioner. The parents of the minors are alive. In these circumstances the petitioner's application was rejected by Family Court. The learned Singles Judge rightly refused to interfere with this order of the family Court. There is no question of law far less of any public importance involved in the case. The petition is, accordingly, dismissed. Petition dismissed.
